concerning the return of the grandson of Mr.. and

posed they had given him up, and in consideration
OF their feelings state the facts briefly, given
by them. The mother it seems has been in the
Massachusetts General Hospital since July 49, lsS7,
and She worried about her boy it was decided
to send him to his grandparents who had asked
many times for him to come on n visit. The con-
ttitions were that Charles Davis Tucker was ON a

legal advice action to obtain possession of said
child, but if the mother died then they could claim

Such tiolilla of steamers and sailing craf;
was never seen before in New York bay. 1t IS
estimated that 30 900 people witnessed the race
from the decks So eager were the captains to
give their passengers a good view that they
ran the risk of collision with each other and
seriously, and in some eases Shamefully ni-
peded the progress Of the racers. The wind
was light and variable the first o1 the race but
later swung round to the southeast and hreeZ-
ed up little. The Seotchmen admitted that
they We're badly beaten. but said they never
saw the Thistle sail SO badly. That may be
accounted for as she had never sailed against
the Volunteer. The second trial race is aF-
pointed for to-day and will he over the outside

Where did the Meteor Fall,

This query bids fair to take the place of the
chestnut, "who struck Billy Patterson" The
crew of vessel at st. john n. B., they
the meteor sink in the waters of the Bay of Fun
day, and the tale is told with abundant details.
The grand sight was witnessed by many from the
piazza of the kineO House, all of whom thought it
found its resting place in the bosom of Moosehead
Lake. while letter from Bar Harbor gives equally
positive assurance that it sank in that vicinity the
roaring noise that followed the motion mass into
the sea- as so graphically set forth in the ST. John
report And still another Capt. Walker of the
the meteor on the night of Sept. Is. At this time
the steamer was in lat AZ deg. % sec, long, 66 deg
- sec and the time was 80 O'Clock. The meteor
was observed to the east northeast, and was very
brilliant sparks radiating from the centre, and 1t
had long, fer? tail The sky brilliantly illu-
minated for the space of six seconds The meteor
fell into the sea about half q mile from the ship.
